Suffolk Refugee Support aims to ensure that all asylum seekers and refugees in Suffolk can live integrated, fulfilled and contributing lives in their new communities. We provide a welcoming environment where clients can access help, advice, support, and practical services in order to be healthy and safe and begin to rebuild their lives.
The purpose of this role is to work across our client groups to encourage people to engage in health, fitness and sports activities by laying on specific activities or by supporting our clients to join existing local provision. One of these activities will be a football group for young people. You will also be responsible for working with our clients on how to improve their health and wellbeing, either through organising information sessions or courses or through working with individual clients to help them make specific changes in their lives.
The post holder is required to work 21 hours a week (days to be confirmed with the successful candidate). You will be expected to work at least one evening per week (to run our football provision), and occasional weekends.
